    Attribution theory is the original parent theory with Harold Kelley's covariation model and Bernard Weiner's three-dimensional model branching from Attribution theory. Attribution theory also influenced several other theories as well such as Heider's Perceived Locus of Causality which eventually led to Deci and Ryan's Theory of Self-determination.

  3. Methods used to study memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methods_used_to_study_memory

    In order to fully understand memory, researchers must cumulate evidence from human, animal, and developmental research in order to make broad theories about how memory works. Intraspecies comparisons are key. Rats for example display extremely complex behaviours and most of the structures in their brain parallel those in humans.

    In 1974, Baddeley and Hitch [5] introduced and made popular the multicomponent model of working memory.This theory proposes a central executive that, among other things, is responsible for directing attention to relevant information, suppressing irrelevant information and inappropriate actions, and for coordinating cognitive processes when more than one task must be done at the same time.

    Memorization (British English: memorisation) is the process of committing something to memory. It is a mental process undertaken in order to store in memory for later recall visual, auditory, or tactical information. The scientific study of memory is part of cognitive neuroscience, an interdisciplinary link between cognitive psychology and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory

    Memory is the faculty of the mind by which data or information is encoded, stored, and retrieved when needed. It is the retention of information over time for the purpose of influencing future action. [1] If past events could not be remembered, it would be impossible for language, relationships, or personal identity to develop. [2]

  8. Baddeley's model of working memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baddeley's_model_of_working...

    Baddeley's model of working memory is a model of human memory proposed by Alan Baddeley and Graham Hitch in 1974, in an attempt to present a more accurate model of primary memory (often referred to as short-term memory). Working memory splits primary memory into multiple components, rather than considering it to be a single, unified construct. [1]

  9. Remember versus know judgements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remember_versus_know...

    There are two criteria on a decision axis; a point low on the axis is associated with a "know" decision, and a point high on the axis is associated with a "remember" decision. [5] If memory strength is high, individuals make a "remember" response, and if memory strength is low, individuals make a "know" response. [5]
